Hello all,

This is going to sound like a crazy question, and I'm not even sure how to 
pose it...

In v. 23 Paul says "but each in his own order" - 

EKASTOS DE EN TW IDIW TAGMATI 

..and then starts out v. 24 with: EITA TO TELOS

Is there anything in this text that allows, or disallows, EITA TO TELOS from 
relating to TAGMATI ?

In other words - I see 2 orders - "Christ, the firstfruit; afterward those of 
Christ at His coming."

Is EITA TO TELOS a third "order", or is Paul saying "Then the end" starting a 
new statement unrelated to TAGMATI?  

It seems obvious to me, but I would like someone to point out to me why EITA 
TO TOLOS is not related to TAGMATI, or why it may be a third "order".

Thanks - I hope you all understand my question.  I'm struggling with this 
passage.
